Skin Tag In Mouth, Inner Cheek, Purple Colored. Anything To Worry?
Hello i have what appears to be a skin tag in my mouth on my inner cheek. The area is slightly purple colored and tender with pain around a 1/10. The tag is too high to have become irritated by chewing on or biting the area. The tip of the tag has a white spot almost like a pimple. Should i be concerned? How long should iwait in order to contact a dentist? I have VA healthcare without dental and a very tiny income because i am in school so it needs to really be a thing for me to see a professional. Thank you!
Dont worry avoid biting on that area. Apply Dologel oral ointment topically over it. Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses. It will get healed after time. Avoid consumption of hot and spicy foodstuffs.
Take care!
